Have you heard the song “Locked In a Cage” by Skillet?
I just found out yesterday that they are a Christian band. I was checking out the lyrics of their other songs because the lyrics of “Locked In a Cage” got me wondering. You wanna know why?
Here’s part of the song’s lyrics:
I wanna break my legs
In case a thought to escape
Keep the hammer out of my reach
If my pounding impulse comes
Wrapped up inside your arms
Locked up inside you
Well I like the song because it’s nice and my very close friend (as in friend since kindergarten) likes this song too and she and I used to sing songs like this a lot but what we like about the song is the beat mostly hehe
and for me, this part of the song also..” You bring calm to my rage“. Yeah, it’s a teensy weensy line but it says a lot
Well, another one of their lyrics I really love, but I haven’t heard the entire song yet
It, in a sense gave me a message. Something that God might want to relay to me
Maybe after you read the lyrics of “Safe With You” you might also remember how nice it was when you were closer to God too
Learning inside
I will be safe with You tonight
You cause the smile and the teardrops in my eyes
Locked inside Your every movement
Will I stand or will I fall?
Trapped inside Your walls of glory
I am just as the dead leaves fall
Chaos in my head
The whole universe is at rest
When I’m in Your arms is when I feel the best
Locked inside Your creative being
Whirled about in Your unfailing truth
Attacked with power by ferocious love
Salvation alone belongs to You!
Lifting up my voice to the God who really sees
The God who is consumed with loving thoughts of me
The screaming winds
And the crashing of the oceans
Shifting sands and the changing of the seasons
As I stand in awe and wonder
Nothing in the world has prepared me for You!
Jesus, Jesus I’m safe with You

“Lift Up Your Hands” is also a nice song.
…
And He said “Cast your burdens upon me,
Those who are heavily laden,
Come to me all of you who are tired
Of carrying heavy loads,
For the yoke I will give you is easy,
And My burden is light.
Come to me and I will give you rest.”
…
Keep the faith, Shantz!
